The latest edition of Aftermarket International is now online

Portada AMI

Latin America. This issue, the last of the year, includes the ventures of three Latinos with their own brand in the United States market, as well as interviews with the president of the National Auto Parts Industry of Mexico (INA) and the Brand Manager of Automechanika Frankfurt.

The stories of three Venezuelan businessmen who settled in the United States and have floated their own brand, in the midst of a market as demanding as the North American, make up the cover story of the October-November edition of Aftermarket International.

Gabriel Garrido, founder of Mass Parts; José Luis Bruno, CEO of Braico Group; and Milagros Méndez, together with her partner Clarisa Gianelli, at the head of the company Ramco Automotive, tell how they started and have established themselves in this industry, adapting to the challenges of each stage, in the midst of changing times.

Regarding the adaptation to the scenarios derived from the pandemic, which affected the supply chain, and thereby opened unusual opportunities for certain markets such as Mexico, we spoke with the president of the National Auto Parts Industry of this country, Francisco González.

In an exclusive interview, he tells us the keys for Mexico to have reached the fourth position as a world producer of auto parts, as well as those aspects to promote to continue scaling in the medium term.

On the other hand, the Brand Manager of Automechanika Frankfurt, Michael Johannes, gave us his vision on the new technologies presented in this year's edition of the fair, which served for the global reunion of the different actors of the industry. There the advances in the areas of digitalization and electromobility were evidenced as driving trends of the following decade.
